Gym and health club contracts are notoriously stringent and difficult to break, and have often been the subject of class action lawsuits and other litigation. But like other properly-executed contracts, gym and health club contracts are generally enforceable unless they are unconscionable as a matter of law (this is rare) or include provisions that are prohibited by law. Most states have specific laws (statutes) that limit the terms that may be included in gym and health club contracts—and if such a contract does not comply with the state’s laws, it is likely void and unenforceable—at least in part.

In Nevada, gym and health club contracts are subject to certain state regulations that aim to protect consumers from unfair contract terms. Nevada Revised Statutes (NRS) Chapter 598 outlines the Deceptive Trade Practices Act, which includes provisions that could affect gym and health club contracts. Specifically, NRS 598.940 prohibits deceptive trade practices, which could encompass certain unfair terms in a gym contract. Additionally, Nevada law requires specific disclosures in contracts for services, including the duration of the contract and the terms of cancellation. If a gym or health club contract includes provisions that violate these statutes or is found to be unconscionable, it may be deemed void or unenforceable. However, if the contract is properly executed and complies with Nevada law, it is generally enforceable. Consumers should be aware of their rights and the specific terms of their contracts, and may wish to consult with an attorney if they believe a contract is unfair or illegal.
